I didn't want it too long. Just wide enough for 2 sleds.

Just wondering, how's the trailer coming along. I'm looking at doing something similar to yours but in 42ft.

It's coming along, I think I might call and see when it will be done. I had to get some modifications done to it because it would be close to hitting my truck's toolbox.

Hoping to have it before Feb 7.

I picked my truck up yesterday, drove it 400km. It's fun and rides nice. It's huge.

I tried the Webasto out today, really nice, glad I got it.

What's the freightliner running if you don't mind me asking. Be a dream truck of mine, but prob a little overkill.lol Got a 13 denali duramax looking to go to the new 15 ford or gmc diesel.

Just heard back that the trailer will be finished Feb 14. I'm picking it up on the 15 on the way back from Revy.

Called Precision RV before I was going to pick the trailer up and they bumped it to Wednesday next week. :mad2: Right now it's looking like I wouldn't recommend getting a Precision RV trailer.

First big trip with the truck, went ok I guess. The seal in the rear hub went, had to add 10L to it and lost half a day to drive it to Kelowna to get fixed.

Ended up bending the hitch, either it didn't like the maxi's or the trailer brakes weren't set high enough.
